You’d blow a 70 minute connection with no Global Entry easy with a 30 minute delay or so. Are you checking bags? Add some time for that too. And is this all on the same ticket? Do you have elite status?

i did a three hour “connection” on separate TP/AS tickets (quotes because it ain’t actually a connection on separate tickets) and thanks to TP being late it was more like 90 minutes. I have Global Entry. There were still lines. Made it through to the flight and checked a bag, but it was tight. Would have been up a creek without GE or MVPG status that would let me change flight times for $0 if it came down to it. I would have been considerably more conservative in that case.
